By simulating multiple events on an Al/Fe material over a period of several days, we have observed significant increases in sorption capacity during intervals between leaching events that were attributed to sorbed P being converted to more strongly bound forms--a process that resulted in more sorption sites becoming available prior to the next leaching event (Hsieh et al.

The system must operate continuously in order to control the plume migration, yet it does little to remove significant amounts of the pollutants, which are usually present as chemicals sorbed onto the aquifer materials or in high concentration as a separate physical layer.
